Der Spiegel and the Useless Obso-elites of the Fading Atlanticist Order

It isn't of course, the end of the world as the cover of Germany's Time magazine Der Spiegel proclaimed this week, with an image of the dinosaur killing Trump-asteroid burning into the Earth's atmosphere (once again showing that the dying mainstream media's editors remain in denial that they're the dinosaurs and the new media are the furry creatures at their feet who will survive the great extinction event). Just the great culling of what the late Harvard political science professor Samuel P. Huntington, who foresaw the reemergence of nationalism before his death in 2008, dubbed 'Davos Men'. That is, the Trumpening is indeed signaling the irrelevance and hence uselessness to their bankster hosts of obso-elites like the Swedish political hack Carl Bildt, who are more famous for being famous in pseudo-intellectual and Euro-bureaucratic circles than any actual accomplishments.

Trump's victory in the teeth of Establishment hatred also signals the great failure of Atlanticists like Bild to inculcate their fear and hatred of 'Putin's Russia' to the American voters of the Midwest, or for that matter the Brexit-eers of the British 'Rust Belt' last June. As the French diplomat Talleyrand said of the Bourbons the dynasty overthrown and then briefly restored after the French Revolution depicted in the Trump-anthem inspiring musical Les Miserables, these pathetic globalists learned nothing and forgot everything from their efforts to 'link' the Brexit vote to Putin and thereby turn the ex-KGB officer into an omnivorous super villain backfiring on them.

@carlbildt I somehow doubt Trump, fresh from overthrowing US liberal establishment, is overly concerned what european liberal elites think.

“Speaking after Mr Trump won a shock victory over Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, Kremlin advisor Sergei Glazyev said the Democrat politician was a “symbol of war” and under Mr Trump the US had “a chance to change course”.

He told Russian news wire RNS: “Americans had two choices: World War Three or multilateral peace.

“Clinton was a symbol of war, and Trump has a chance to change this course”.”

Nonetheless, Putin's economic adviser Sergey Glazyev -- who is well known to the LaRouche movement if not personally to RogueMoney guest Harley Schlanger -- observed correctly that Trump's shock the world win may've also saved the planet from nuclear war. Not only did a significant portion of the American and British Deep State (quite possibly including the Royal family with their tacit support for Brexit) choose to step back from the brink of direct military confrontation with nuclear-armed Moscow via the FBI leaks and Wikileaks. But the accelerated unraveling of the State Department and European Union's ability to bribe or bully politicians into line promises a springtime of the nations -- see our upcoming article on the National International and Angela Merkel and her defense minister's frosty reaction to not only Trump's victory, but the establishment of the anti-immivasion and Alternativ fur Deutschland (AfD) platform of Breitbart Germany. Which is already critical of the German Deep State's plans for a European Union (EU) Army centered on the Franco-German-Dutch rump that will be left of the bloc after the unraveling continues with Italy's referendum this December:

“Russia believes that the European Army with Germany as its leader will be instrumental in preventing any kind of “fire” coming from the US, Five Eyes and Israel.

Europe doesn’t want a war in Europe. The Empire does, because they are not in Europe. The devastation of Europe in a war would solve ALL their problems.

The European Army as designed by Germany, France and Russia will be instrumental in squeezing NATO out of Europe and liberating Germany from American occupation...

Right now, NATO knows what’s coming and they are increasing their presence in Europe, to make their exit more expensive for Europe and Russia.The US was given an ultimatum and they are bargaining right now to get more for their withdrawal from Europe.

As soon as NATO is out of Europe, Germany will get all those peace agreements and political freedoms that the US refused to give.”

The 'White Hats' Who Worked Behind the Scenes to Take Down the Clinton Crime Family

All the same, before the Washington Establishment seeks to undermine a Trump Administration via co-optation where it failed miserably through demonization, it's worth looking back on why and how the unsinkable SS Hillary sank beneath the waves like the Titanic. The most recent interview between my friend the Florida-based Swiss/White Russian emigre known as The Saker, and Catherine Austin Fitts of the Solari Report is a great place to start for in-depth analysis of how the global(ist) mainstream media shocking event of a Trump presidency came to be. It's certainly a reminder much like the warnings of W the Intelligence Insider and Deb @BanksterSlayer Caruthers that The Donald could not have come this far without the help of at least some portion of the American 'Deep State'. And not just the Federal Bureau of Investigation conservative white male 'cabal' that Hillary loyalist Sidney Blumenthal and other Clinton confidantes say HRC blames for her loss, together with the two-faced and soon to be ousted FBI director James Comey.

Also joining the shadow war of leaks and counterleaks to unseat the Clintons and their Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) firster allies in Langley like Director John (purported Saudi royal family friend and Sunni Muslim convert while Riyadh station chief) Brennan and ex-Deputy Director Mike Morrell were National Security Agency (NSA) vigilantes. Despite the denials of ex-NSA counterintelligence officer turned disgraced former US Naval War College professor John R. Schindler, these individuals likely saved Hillary's emails from deletion off her 'private' bathroom server, once it became clear to these watchers that the Russians, Chinese, Israelis and quite possibly the French as well as several non-state actor hackers like Guccifer 2.0 had them with all the potential for Kremlin and other foreign state blackmail of HRC they entailed.

What the Russians Did -- and Did Not Do -- Related to the U.S. Elections

Anyone who still believes the simplistic story that 'the Russians' were solely responsible for Wikileaks information, and especially the physical protection of Julian Assange and his allies from being Arkancide-d, or that the John Podesta emails with their suspected euphemisms for pedophilia came entirely from the kompromat seeking efforts of the FSB/GRU's 'cozy and fancy' bear hackers knows little about the real 4 dimensional chess game. Former Tom Clancy co-author/ghostwriter Dr. Steve Pieczenik, a frequent guest on the Alex Jones' Infowars program, let slip the 'coup and counter-coup' that was going on behind the scenes in a video viewed hundreds of thousands of times just a few days before the election.

Finally, the Russians did indeed as Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov hinted play some part by emphasizing Wikileaks in their state-funded media. But the larger message sent to the American Deep State to deep six Hillary or run the risk of nuclear war involved a major show of force in Syria, as well as broader conventional and 'civil defense' nuclear war simulations sufficient to convince key decision makers in Whitehall and the Pentagon that Moscow was not bluffing.

Armageddon Averted While Most Americans and Europeans Had No Clue

While the U.S. did have the capability to overwhelm Russian air defenses in Syria, the price of such confrontation in terms of shot down aircraft and US Navy ships sunk with all hands in the Med would not have been worth the horrific price to American and allied military prestige. The myths of invisible F-22s/B-2s and American air supremacy painstakingly built up in the generation since the Reagan defense build up that 'won' the first Cold War would've never recovered from the blows a small but powerful Russian contingent was capable of inflicting, including via Kalibr and air-launched cruise missile counterstrikes from the Black and Caspian Seas.

Furthermore, unlike the clueless idiots in the U.S. Senate and neocon-dominated mainstream media, the generals and colonels at least understood that American/NATO forces in Ukraine were hostage to good behavior towards Russian servicemen in Syria. Meaning had the U.S. gone all out where it had a numerical advantage in Syria, Moscow made it clear the war would not have remained confined to Syria or even the greater Mideast, but would've spilled over into Eastern Europe. Meaning NATO's own disavowed official observers or foreign legionnaire 'vacationers' in the Donbass would have been overrun or captured alongside their Ukrainian Army hosts within 100 hours of Putin giving the order. US units as far afield as Moldova or in former Soviet Central Asia supporting operations in Afghanistan would've also been vulnerable to winding up marooned via cut off logistics or under cruise missile and aerial bombardment.

For all of these reasons, when we heard the news that Donald J. Trump had won or was about to win Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and had defeated Hillary, the Russia Analyst got down on his knees and gave thanks to God with a tear in his eye that a global conflagration had been averted. Whether you believe the 'Deep State' and some portion of the globalists wanted Mr. Trump to win or not, there is still such a thing as Divine Providence in this world. And God Almighty decided to give America a reprieve from judgement by fire and sword -- what Americans do with it now is up to us.

Below is the key excerpt from Catherine Austin Fitts' interview recorded with the Saker over a week before the election, which presciently predicts the U.S. Deep State is going to cut its losses:

“Saker: Yes, but I would slightly rephrase it. One very interesting [exiled Ukrainian] analyst in Russia, called[Rotislav] Ishchenko, has offered a theory, which I think I endorse. It’s that there is a huge fighthappening inside the United States right now between two factions. One faction wants tosacrifice the US for the sake of the empire, and the second faction wants to sacrifice theempire for the sake of the United States.

C. Austin Fitts: Right.

Saker: The first faction who wants to sacrifice the US for the sake of the empire –theneocons and everything that surrounds them – and the second faction, according to[Rotislav] Ishchenko, and I’m not saying that for a fact is true, but he thinks – and I find that theory atleast plausible – is that that is the power base of Trump.

If that’s what is happening, we probably see that struggle already taking place in Syriabecause the US has basically two options there: Either withdraw and let go, or double down.

C. Austin Fitts: Right.

Saker: That’s the risk. Do you double down at any cost, or do you realize, “This is notviable; I need to get a negotiated settlement.” I think that is what is taking place there.

C. Austin Fitts: Are you saying that the neocons are the faction behind Trump?

Saker: No, the opposite. I’m saying that the neocons are the faction that wants to sacrificethe US for the sake of the empire and wants the empire at all costs, whereas the Trumppeople in that hypothesis, would be those who say, “Forget the empire; let’s save the UnitedStates.”

C. Austin Fitts: Right.

Saker: And these are the people who would favor a negotiated solution pretty mucheverywhere. They realize that they cannot hold onto the empire, so the smartest thing to dowhen you come to that realization is, what you call in Russia, ‘bringing down while steppingon the brakes’ which is a controlled deconstruction of the empire – be it the Ukraine, Syria, or the economy or China, etc.

Negotiate and find some kind of way to make a compromise. That would be the way to savethe United States. The neocon solutions are crazy, which is double down everywhere, and ifnothing works, use as much force as needed.”
